If that escape room didn't end with a mirror showing YOU are Grandpa Clyde's treasure, you need to ask for your $40 back.

Ooh ok based on your review, I'll give the Netflix adaptation a chance. I absolutely LOVED the animated series and if I had my way, I'd make the money people just direct the cash to the animation team to continue the series* (what ever happened to Zuko's mom? Can we have a few episodes of Aang being the primary parent while Katara is working outside the home? Seeing Sokka turn into a self-assured, serious leader?).

Please tell me they kept the cabbage man in. Everytime I see cabbage, I scream "AH MY CABBAGES" internally and sometimes out loud.

*I wanted to love Korra so much but it really paled in comparison to the original series.

Nothing could come close to the original, it was truly a “lightning only strikes once” kind of series. I think the money probably would have been better spent continuing the original series, but this is what we got and it’s at least not awful. I probably won’t rewatch this like I rewatch the cartoon, but at least it’s not on par with the M Night movie.

And yes, not only did they keep the cabbages guy, but the person playing the cabbage guy in the live action is the guy who did the voice in the cartoon!! As someone else who constantly has “my cabbages!” running through her head, this made me so happy.
